Copy MariaDb from One server to another

Direct container shell

do you still have access to the old server?

and the old db?

Yeah

Yeah

okay try these commands. I'm not a docker expert, so please bear with me lol

No Problem

docker compose exec mariadb sh -c 'exec mysqldump --all-databases --add-drop-database -u"$MYSQL_USER" -p"$MYSQL_PASSWORD"' > ./dump.sql

make sure to run this in the same directory as appwrite's doker-compose.yml

docker compose exec -T mariadb sh -c 'exec mysql -u"$MYSQL_USER" -p"$MYSQL_PASSWORD"' < dump.sql
use this to restore on your other server

Doing now

let me know

add a sudo if you're not root

LOCK TABLES _console_webhooks_perms WRITE;
/*!40000 ALTER TABLE _console_webhooks_perms DISABLE KEYS /;
/!40000 ALTER TABLE _console_webhooks_perms ENABLE KEYS /;
UNLOCK TABLES;
/!40103 SET TIME_ZONE=@OLD_TIME_ZONE */;

/*!40101 SET SQL_MODE=@OLD_SQL_MODE /;
/!40014 SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=@OLD_FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS /;
/!40014 SET UNIQUE_CHECKS=@OLD_UNIQUE_CHECKS /;
/!40101 SET CHARACTER_SET_CLIENT=@OLD_CHARACTER_SET_CLIENT /;
/!40101 SET CHARACTER_SET_RESULTS=@OLD_CHARACTER_SET_RESULTS /;
/!40101 SET COLLATION_CONNECTION=@OLD_COLLATION_CONNECTION /;
/!40111 SET SQL_NOTES=@OLD_SQL_NOTES */;

Make sure you're you're using the same docker-compose.yml and .env file from your old server on the new server
